Honk and Go!!!

Well my Vietnam trip is at it's conclusion... albeit a little early due to an emergency from one of my colleague. Didn't get to go Hanoi this time, but had some great meetings and photos throughout.

I learnt a new way of driving during this trip... I'd call it "Honk and Go!!!". What you do is when you come to a junction, you just blare your horn and keep driving.. don't break, just plough straight on! Amazing how Ho Chi Minh City is without traffic jams and stuff. Everyone just honks and go! If you're slow to react at a traffic light once it turns green, 20 cars/bikes honk you... HAH! Payback time for those annoying slow-to-react drivers in Malaysia. As a result of that, every driver in Vietnam has lightning fast reflexes. It's simply perfect!

After several days of living here, I've come to feel comfortable with their way of life, and actually find Vietnam quite an interesting place! The art here is superb, lots of music, culture and very very beautiful traditional garment in the form of the Áo Dài. I'm definitely getting Wn one of those.

I definitely look forward to coming back to Vietnam.
